             Bug #: 53997
           Summary: FILESAVE, MS-COMPAT: stop using
                    table:number-columns-repeated
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.6.0.4 release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Spreadsheet
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Microsoft Excel does not understand the number-columns-repeated attribute.


For exmaple:
<table:covered-table-cell table:number-columns-repeated="3"/>
will only produce one covered cell. Instead, Excel 2010 emits and understands:
<table:covered-table-cell/><table:covered-table-cell/><table:covered-table-cell/>

This applies to other elements too:
<table:table-column table:style-name="co1" table:default-cell-style-name="ce1"
table:number-columns-repeated="3"/>
is not understood, and requires changing to:
<table:table-column table:style-name="co1"
table:default-cell-style-name="ce1"/><table:table-column table:style-name="co1"
table:default-cell-style-name="ce1"/><table:table-column table:style-name="co1"
table:default-cell-style-name="ce1"/>


I think Excel compatability should be a higher priority than file size.
Please change the FILESAVE code to emit repeated elements instead of using the
number-columns-repeated attribute.
